Cads, Princes & Best Friends

“… Coulanges trudges through the disappointments and pitfalls of her messy love life, a journey with which most women can easily identify…the story of a woman who through hard work, tough choices, and good friends, finds the strength to arrive in a life filled with real happiness and profound faith…Through her story of struggle and redemption, she hopes to share what she calls the butterfly phenomenon.” – Hudson Current



A gorgeous woman of Haitian descent living in New York City, Danielle has creative, sensible, loving, and charitable qualities. But the voice in her head keeps asking, “What’s wrong with me?” Danielle picks through her childhood and past choices to uncover answers. Realizing that devaluing her self-worth has trapped her in a tumultuous business and love relationship she decides to walk away. Starting over will be a breeze, she thinks. Thirty-something, she just needs a new man, her own business, and lots of money to embark on a wonderful life. Quite the contrary, that’s when trouble (and heartache) really begins…




Danielle’s daily meditation reads: “God answers prayers. Although God’s answer is immediate, the particular way it unfolds may take time.” Nothing epitomized her life better than this nugget of faith. When unexpected, life-altering events force her to reexamine her values and beliefs, Danielle emerges with a new attitude that finally places her on the path that God intended for her all along.
